Chapter 84

Newspapers circulate among people.

Xiao Ming said: "this thing in your hands is the newspaper. The so-called newspaper boy is to send the newspaper to the States and counties, and is responsible for reading the newspaper to the people. This matter is very simple, but it is also very important. After reading the newspaper, you will also be responsible for collecting the sufferings of the people, and then pass them on to Qingzhou."

A group of scholars nodded frequently. Then fan Zeng said, "Your Highness, isn't this Newsboy similar to Yan Guan?"

"It's really similar to Yanguan, but the public sentiment you reflect will be published in the newspaper, and the common people's officials will reflect the solution back to the newspaper, so that the common people's voice can be known from top to bottom." Xiao Ming looks at fan Zeng with appreciation.

Scholars are a little incredible. The king of Qi paid so much attention to the sufferings of the feudal people, which made them feel deeply.

Some scholars said, "Your Highness is diligent and loves the people. We should have helped your highness."

"Yes, I'd like to be a newsboy."

"Yes, there's nothing to be ashamed of. Reading is for the sake of the people."

“……”

All the scholars in the governor's mansion were impassioned. Pang Yukun and Xiao Ming nodded to themselves. In fact, the common people and these scholars also had a reputation in their hearts.

If it had been in the past, they would have considered it carefully, but now they also see all kinds of measures taken by the king of Qi.

However, these scholars are only a part of them, and some of them are silent and seem to have no interest in the newsboy.

Some also showed impatience, as if waiting for something else.

Xiao Ming looks at these people with a sneer in his heart. He knows that the purpose of these people is to serve as long history officers in the army, but the more so, the more he will not give them long history officers.

Because these people are indifferent to the common people, they will not sympathize with the soldiers who come from the common people in the army. Even when they come to the army, they are also an official. They don't need such people.

All of Xiao Ming's reforms are aimed at winning the hearts of the people and bringing these people under his command.

What's more, these impatient scholars are all full-bodied, and their clothes are not bad. At first glance, they come from a good family. It is estimated that they are either big families or small families.

After pondering for a while, he said, "if you are willing to apply for a taxi for NEWSBOY, please stay. Others can leave."

"Leave? Your highness, the notice clearly says that there is a long history of application. " A scholar discontented.

Pang Yukun snorted coldly, "what your highness says is what, when it's your turn to make a lot of noise here, go out!"

The scholar turned pale and left angrily. Some other scholars also went out.

After waiting for a while, looking at the remaining 100 or so people in the hall, Xiao Ming said, "Congratulations, you can choose Chang Shi and Newsboy at will now, but Chang Shi needs to pass Pang Chang Shi's test. As for NEWSBOY, you can register now and report every day. From now on, one or two silver coins a month."

The scholars showed an incredible look, and then there was ecstasy. Many people secretly congratulated themselves that they had not left.

"Next, I will examine you one by one. Those who pass the examination will be assigned to Bowen College as students for a period of time. If they pass the examination, they can enter the army." Said Pang.

The scholars immediately lined up one by one, waiting for the test.

At this time, fan Zeng came out quietly and said to Xiao Ming, "Your Highness, when the grass people are old, they will not apply for the long history. But what your highness said just now really moved me."

"The old man is ambitious. Why should he belittle himself?" Xiao Ming said.

Fan Zeng said: "my highness, I have participated in the imperial examination since I was 15 years old, and now I still achieve nothing. My highness praises Jiang Gong for comparing him with me. I'd better be a newsboy because I know what I can do."

"In this case, I don't force you. As the saying goes, it's hard to make a change." Xiao Ming said: first, fan Zeng is really old. Second, he has no will and is not competent for a long history.

However, in his opinion, fan Zeng is old and a scholar. He is very suitable for the newspaper to be built soon.

He said with a pause: "if my father-in-law is willing, can he write down what he sees from the people? If it's good, it can be published in this newspaper."

"You can." Fan Zeng said.

Xiao Ming ordered him. He didn't dare to confirm fan Zeng's ability, so he wanted to test it.

In fact, he did not care about the people selected by the imperial examination. After all, in any era, there are always many crooked talents.

With Changshi and Newsboy settled down, Xiao Ming accelerated the construction of newspaper office, papermaking workshop and printing workshop.

As soon as a house was built in the industrial park, he arranged for craftsmen to settle in and start production.

He also chose the position of the newspaper, and he is in the school of Bowen for the time being.

As soon as he sat down in the governor's office, there was a loud noise outside the door. Then Lu Fei came in laughing and said, "Your Highness, I heard that the iron and steel workshop has produced a lot of armor. Can you let me have a look?""Hum, Chen Wenlong told you. There's no one on his lips to guard the door." Xiao Ming said.

Lu Fei said with a smile, "Your Highness, you can't blame Chen bingcao for this. He said it after the last general caught him and scared him a few words."

"I guess so. Anyway, you're here. Let's go and have a look." Xiao Ming also has some expectations.

Since the expansion of the iron and steel workshop and sufficient manpower, the production of plate armour has started. Moreover, it is a mass production line, and 100 sets of plate armour per day is guaranteed to be no problem.

After all, although it is assembly line production, the backward production conditions are still limited here.

To the iron and steel workshop, they saw a combination of plate armour, these plate armour emitting a shiny silver white.

From the helmet, breastplate, arm guard, leg guard to form a complete human form.

This is the advantage of plate armour. It is not only flexible, but also well protected. There are almost no flaws. In addition to the high-quality steel refined by the iron and steel workshop and the repeated hammering by the forging hammer, the steel quality of plate armour is also good.

"Your Highness, this must be mine." Luffy pointed to one of the big plates and said.

The successfully forged plate armour stands up like terracotta warriors and horses. Xiao Ming looks at Lu Fei's finger. It's a large plate armour which is bigger than ordinary plate armour in size and thickness.

"Yes, this is captain Lu's." Chen Wenlong said with a smile.

The cold luster of the metal came from the plate armor. Luffy gazed at his armor like a lover. He strode over and said, "Your Highness, may I have a try?"

Xiao Ming nodded and asked the craftsman to put on the plate armour for Lu Fei. After all, Lu Fei was also in contact with the plate armour for the first time.
